Norwegian to offer casino-related fare discounts through agents

ORLANDO — Norwegian Cruise Line customers who qualify for a discount because of their casino spending will get the offer from their travel agent, starting around the second quarter of 2013.

When Norwegian stops mailing promotions directly to passengers enrolled in the Casino at Sea program, it will send the names of gamblers to the last travel agent to have booked them on a Norwegian cruise, said vice president of passenger services Vivian Ewart. The discounted bookings are commissionable.
